Team Anna to hold referendum on Lokpal Bill in Sibal’s seat

Activist Arvind Kejriwal said they will be approaching seven lakh house-holds in Chandni Chowk constituency from where Sibal had won in 2009 general elections. “He is the government’s face of Lokpal. So we decided to hold the referendum in his constituency.

“From July 21 to 24,our volunteers will visit his constituency,leave the questionnaire and collect it two days later. There will be eight questions,including whether Prime Minister should be brought under Lokpal,” he said.

If the people,he said,votes for the civil society version,then they will ask Sibal whether he will go by the party High Command or people’s wishes.

He said they expect to publish the results by July 27.

Kejriwal said the survey sheets will be “optical mark recognition (OMR)” sheets which will be tabulated using computers.
